In recent years there has been a shift – people are now moving into care facilities at a later stage in life. This means they are spending more time living at home, often with their care needs being met by relatives or carers without a healthcare background. While there is an endless amount of information online, it can be challenging to find practical advice that is easy to digest, free and available when you need it.
Realising this need in the community, Nightingale Hammerson has embarked on a new mission: to help people live better for longer at home. Drawing on the expertise of multidisciplinary teams in both our care homes, Reach by Nightingale Hammerson shares dozens of practical advice videos and factsheets across our website, YouTube channel and social media.
Already viewed by thousands of people worldwide, Reach is helping family members care for their older relatives by offering advice on a range of topics. With guidance on how to get in and out of bed, how to use a wheelchair, supporting someone with difficulties in eating and drinking, engaging and communicating with someone living with dementia, improving sleep, finding funding for care, inserting and removing hearing aids, technology adaptions and much more, Reach is tackling the real, everyday challenges of home care.
